Our client hired 5 employees to inventory products, but they were still unable to make headway.
The (“manual”) process consisted of:
Taking inventory;
Quality control;
Taking product photos;
Photos optimization (manually via Photoshop);
Branding / security watermark (manually via Photoshop); and
Uploading them to the company website.
This led to significant backlogs that stretched out across weeks, resulting in missed marketing campaigns.
Within a month we were able to streamline their inventory process and automate the product photo workflow, by implementing automation around the most time-consuming parts – resulting in the turnaround time from weeks to under an hour.
This resulted in a vital improvement with their time-to-market and freed up staff to work on strategic, big-picture work.
